Speaking with Lao Dong, Mr. Le Dinh Quyet - Head of the Hydrometeorological Forecast Department, Southern Hydrometeorological Station said that the cause of the hot weather and hot weather is due to the developing hot low pressure from the West expanding to the Southeast, the subtropical high pressure branching to the South of the East Sea then raising its axis to the North crossing the South - South Central region.

"This is an elevated phase, the air flow moves down, limiting the evaporation process to form clouds. Therefore, there are few clouds, many sunshine during the day, little to no rain, so there has been a disruption of rain during the rainy season in Ho Chi Minh City and the Southern provinces" - Mr. Quyet commented.

It is forecasted that in the next 24 hours, the South will have clouds changing, sunny days, and hot weather locally. In the afternoon and evening, there will be showers and thunderstorms in some places, with some areas having moderate to heavy rain.
